Them Crooked Vultures No One Loves Me Version 2 Guitar Parts Lesson ThePartyOfOne

What's the tuning ?

[fsxolliefsx]

Just for anyone interested, the Q-Zone is creating that 'nasal' sound, like leaving a wah in a relatively mid position.

But, his base tone for almost everything is from an Ampeg, cranked. That is IMO, much more important to get his tone that the Fulltone or Q-Zone.

Do check out Catalinbread's SFT pedal for Ampeg in a box (NAILS his tone short of an actual Ampeg) and it makes a good stab at the heavier tone.

Great playing and tone, btw, wish I could have the oppurtunity to play a cracked Ampeg

[tydownz]

Great cover man! looks like a gotta find a qzone.

[ragejg]

I really dig your candor and attitude. And your ability. Good damn job. :)

[niixj]

You've tackled that tone. Any tips on getting a QOTSA type sound? I've been trying forever trying to get something similar.

[KablesP]

@niixj

Ampeg V4/V2

[RegsterGuitar]

Thanks for the vid, you really helped me out with this song.

[BJBorchert93]

Just curious, what guage string are you using for the low A?

[BJBorchert93]

@BJBorchert93 I appologize, I see you've already answered that question. Thanks anyway!

[puma0927]

its hard for me to tell the difference between with or without the qzone. what do you think? oh by the way that is such an awesome tone!!!!

[christofare]

hey, i am an unexperienced ear, i don't even know the terminology you speak of in this video, i just happened to be listening to covers and yours is the best I've heard so far. so what i have to say is you fucking rock, and you don't suck. you even got the parts where josh homme kicked in with a bits of freestyle and such. this is great man i want to be able to do this some day.

[ThePartyOfOne]

@christofare I was just addressing the different effects I used to get the sound of the recording used on the TCV album. Thanks for the reply.

[Kalixter]

What gauge strings are you using, btw? And what q-zone pedal?

[ThePartyOfOne]

@Kalixter I was using 11-48 slinky. The heavy string was flopping real bad and I would suggest at least a 58 for the top for this song. A Dunlop Qzone is just a fixed wah/ notch filter.

[Kalixter]

Dude you really need to put up tabs, or up close slowed down version of you playing it for us newbies. Please. lol

[Kalixter]

@Kalixter Nevermind. Fuck my comment. I just figured it out. I'm proud of myself. lmfao.

[Johndrakenosix]

You are way too humble out this. I worked up this song by ear too and I was nowhere close to this (especially without the drop A tuning). I really can't hear anything you missed. And I definitely vote for the Qzone. If you feel like getting out of your room, there are plenty of bands out there who'd be happy to have you.

[dirtypigdog]

Shit hot man! its about the vibe not the tech!(but you got that too) you got it bro! sweet tone!

[steses]

Luke,

Nice job transcribing this song by ear, sir. For the longest time I could not figure out how Josh was getting that guitar sound playing so high on the neck, which was evident from all the various TCV live vids, but now thanks to you the mystery is solved. Keep up the good work!

Peace,

Nick

[jumpbox3]

oh shit before i forget, may i make a request for spinning in the daffodils.. no one seems to have touched this epic track...

[jumpbox3]

Dude this amazing.. you nailed it still no elvis but i'll get over it...keep it up

[BanquetJersey]

What tuning are you using for this? AADGBE ? or Josh's odd AAEADG?

[ThePartyOfOne]

AADGBE

[rdevooght]

Hey Luke, this sounds awesome. I can't find tabs that sound remotely close to your version. Can you help me out?

I have the transition down, but the intro/verse and chorus has got me stumped.

[ThePartyOfOne]

That's probably since I don't read tabs and just learned this by ear. I will try to do a detailed how to explaining the notes and stuff in another vid coming soon. I just wanted to make sure there would be interest if I took the time to make such a vid. Thanks

Luke

[rdevooght]

Definitely, I'd love to see that. Thanks for the help. Much easier to learn from someone else than with tabs. Looking forward to the video!

[SJSoftail]

YES! Outstanding Luke :oD

[lasseolsen]

You got a pretty mighty sound going there ! very good job. And to the Qzone question I think it sounds closest with the pedal on. But anyway, awesome job! keep on rocking dude!
